PERATiNG Sounds

Normal operating sounds of your Maytag Neptune® clothes washer

High pitched sound during a spin cycle.

The motor increases speed to spin the tub to remove moisture from

the load.

Flushing water sound coming from

the dispenser area.

Detergent is dispensed at the start of the cycle. Bleach is dispensed

during final minutes of wash. Fabric softener is dispensed during the

third rinse while the washer is filling.

Sloshing or gurgling water sound

when washer is off and the tub is

rotated.

The seated balance ring around the tub contains a iiquid and is

designed to make the washer spin smoothly.

“Whirring” or “Sloshing” sound

followed by a pause, repeated

throughout the wash cycle.

The tub rotates one direction followed by a pause. The tub reverses

direction and pauses.This action continues throughout the cycle.

Clothes washer maintains a slightly

reduced spin speed after achieving a

higher spin speed.

After reaching the maximum spin speed, the machine may reduce spin

speed slightly to create less noise and vibration.

The spin speed slows down dramati

cally when it sounds like an out-of-bal

ance load.

The tumbler will begin to accelerate to speed, then slows back down

to redistribute the load more evenly when an unbalanced load occurs.

The Maytag Neptune® clothes washer uses a true adaptive fill and adds

more water during the wash cycle as it is needed.

Water is added after the washer

has been tumbling for a while.

Water flows through the dispenser to dilute and add bleach or fabric

softener at the appropriate time. This will occur even if bleach and

fabric softener are not used.

Clicking/draining sounds when washer

is started

Before the washer starts to fill, it will make a series of clicking noises

to check the door lock and do a quick drain.
